Chapter 101: Churon Kuangdao
Aria hovered at the cliff’s edge, fingertips brushing the Dragon Pearl. Its surface shimmered with an otherworldly glow, smooth and almost alive. She could feel it pulsing beneath her touch, each beat humming with raw, untamed power. For a long moment, she simply let her senses drink it in. Power like this wasn’t just dangerous—it was sacred. To grasp it without understanding would be a betrayal.With a steadying breath, she placed the Pearl back into its alcove, careful, deliberate. This wasn’t a simple treasure to hoard. Its essence waited, patient and calculating, promising something far greater than its immediate energy. The elders of the Alchemy Hall would be the key. Absorbing it blindly through the Furnace of Creation might give her strength—but it would strip the dragon’s soul from the gem forever.She rose, fixing her gaze on the Shadowfang Sect far below. The Inner Sect Trial was starting, and every second mattered. Years of grueling training had honed her body to perfection.
Chapter 102: The Long Regret Demonic Blade
The voice was barely more than a whisper, yet it carried weight—an invisible pressure that made everyone in the arena pause. Just one soft syllable, and it revealed the terrifying mastery of its owner.“Who… is that?” someone murmured, eyes wide. Curiosity mixed with fear.The echo faded, and then—he appeared. A tall figure in black, stepping smoothly beside Zayden. Calm. Confident. Completely unshaken by the crimson aura that clung to Churon’s blade—a power that could cleave through a Half-Step Martial Emperor like paper.With a casual raise of his hand, something impossible happened. His arm shimmered, turned golden, glowing with raw, unyielding energy. Radiance. Power. Absolute presence.And then, he clenched his fist.The Long Regret Demonic Blade’s raging red aura shattered. Just like that—crumbled, like dust caught in a sudden wind.“What?!”Shock rolled through the arena like wildfire. Gasps, murmurs, a trembling mix of awe and fear. Shadowfang disciples cheered. Royal Martial
Chapter 103: Shattering Everything
All eyes were on Aria. The battlefield had become a storm of chaos, but even amidst the clamor, one presence sent a chill down every spine: Churon Kuangdao. A Half-Step Martial Emperor, prodigious beyond imagination, whose reputation alone made the bravest warriors hesitate. And in his hand… the weapon of legends: the Eternal Hatred Demon Blade.“That… that’s the Demon Lord’s weapon! Almost a top-tier Astral artifact, just a step below a divine relic!” someone whispered, eyes wide. Gasps rippled through the disciples of the Royal Martial Academy. Few had ever seen it. Fewer still could imagine the destruction it could bring.Churon Kuangdao’s gaze locked on Aria. Sharp, cold, precise. “Aria, isn’t it? I remember now. The prodigy of the Shadowfang Sect’s Outer Sect this year. How… amusing.” His voice dripped malice as he hovered, the Demon Blade radiating a blood-red aura that seemed to twist the air itself. “Today… this place becomes your tomb.”Aria smiled faintly. Calm. Unshaken. “Y
Chapter 104: Suicide to Atone
Kaelen Viremont’s eyes were ice. Cold. Unyielding. Every nerve in Churon Kuangdao’s body screamed in pain beneath his foot. Mud pressed into his chest. Kaelen’s weight drove deep into his ribs. Countless eyes stared down at him, each one a knife of shame cutting through his pride. This wasn’t just pain. It was humiliation, sinking deeper than any wound. It struck at the very core of him.“Ah! You brat! How dare you step on my face!” Churon roared. But there was no fire behind his words. No bite. His aura surged, violent and threatening, yet Kaelen’s calm presence held it back, like a dam stopping a flood.“Shut up.” The word was simple, sharp. Merciless. Kaelen lifted his foot and slammed it down again. Bone splintered. A scream ripped from Churon’s throat. Disciples of both the Shadowfang Sect and the Royal Martial Academy froze in shock. No one had expected this. Crushing one of the Academy’s greatest prodigies in public? Unthinkable.Churon’s next cry wasn’t defiance—it was despair
Chapter 105: Time Is Running Out
“Time spares no one. Those who hesitate… are swallowed whole by the storm.”The young man in white said it so casually that it almost sounded lazy. But the calm in his voice carried weight—an invisible force that seemed to squeeze the air itself. It wasn’t arrogance. Not exactly. It was certain. That quiet, unshakable confidence of someone who simply knew he stood above everyone else. Every word pressed on the crowd like a command no one could ignore: I decide who lives. I decide who dies.Kaelen Viremont froze. The words were teasing, almost playful—but they hit like a hammer. A faint grin tugged at his lips as he watched the white-robed youth. With unnerving composure, he slid the Long Regret Demon Blade into his spatial ring. Then, just as the crowd’s collective breath seemed to stop, he lifted his hand… and extended his middle finger.Gasps rippled through the disciples. Some stepped back, shocked. Others, furious.The white-robed youth’s eyes—previously still as winter ice—flared
Chapter 106: Senior Dragon
“Go meet the strongest elder of our sect?” Kaelen Viremont asked, brow furrowed, as Elder Elysera led him briskly through the shadowed corridors of the Fire Dance Palace.It wasn’t like her to hurry. Elysera, usually composed and unshakable, now moved with a palpable excitement, her energy practically radiating off her. Kaelen could feel it pressing against him, a quiet tension in the air. The elder they were about to see—Senior Dragon—was no ordinary figure. Even among the sect’s most powerful, he carried an aura that made the strongest feel small.“Dragon pearls are rare,” Elysera murmured, her voice a mix of reverence and urgency. “But this one… It’s small. The mightiest elder of Shadowfang, even a Martial Venerate far beyond Martial Sect rank, could probably ignore something like this. Yet perhaps… maybe this one is extraordinary enough to draw his attention.”Kaelen’s eyes narrowed. Skepticism flickered across his face, but he trusted her. She had no reason to deceive him, and he
Chapter 107: Power Infusion
“Power infusion!”The words ripped through the silence like thunder cracking open the sky. Kaelen Viremont and Elder Elysera froze. Neither breathed. For a moment, even the air seemed to forget how to move.Then Kaelen’s eyes sharpened. Determination flickered there.“I’m willing to try it,” he said, calm but steady.Elysera spun toward him so fast her silver robes whipped around her. “No! Absolutely not!” Her voice trembled, yet every word burned with fear and frustration. “You’re only at the Martial King realm, Kaelen. Senior Dragon’s power isn’t something your body can withstand. Even I—after centuries of cultivation—couldn’t endure his dragon essence. You’ll be torn apart before you even know what’s happening!”Her words hit hard, sharp as glass, but the worry underneath them was unmistakable.Across from them, Senior Dragon’s golden eyes gleamed faintly. His voice rolled out low and deep, like distant thunder echoing through old mountains.“Elysera is right. The Inner Sect Trials
Chapter 108: Finally Entering the Emperor Realm
Deep inside the Guardian Hall, in the quietest corner of the massive pavilion, a golden dragon pearl hovered above Kaelen Viremont’s head. It wasn’t just a pearl—it was a sun trapped in crystal, glowing with a brilliance that could make the world feel small.Buzz!A surge of golden energy shot out, washing over Kaelen like a flood breaking through a dam. It tore through his meridians, reforged his muscles, strengthened his bones, and tempered his flesh. Every fiber of him quivered under the divine torrent, leaving him faster, stronger, harder than ever before.Then—Boom!An imperial aura exploded from Kaelen, rippling outward in waves. The heavens themselves seemed to shiver. Stone cracked beneath him. His eyes shot open, golden beams slicing through the pavilion like twin divine swords.“What terrifying eyes…”Elder Elysera’s whisper barely escaped her lips, tinged with awe and fear.“Martial Emperor… the Emperor Realm…”Her breath caught. A soft gasp followed. “He’s… finally succee
Chapter 109: The Skybreaker Talon
The swamp was alive with decay. The air hung heavy, damp enough to choke on, and every breath tasted of rot. Mist clung to everything—skin, clothes, even the inside of the lungs. Each step sank into black sludge that sucked greedily at boots, burping bubbles from the dead roots below.A dozen disciples from the Order of the Blade had gathered on one of the few dry patches in miles, a trembling island of mud pretending to be solid ground. Their robes were shredded, slick with blood and grime. Faces smeared with mud, eyes hollow from exhaustion, they clutched their blades like drowning men holding on to driftwood.For a while, there was nothing but silence. Not even the insects dared to move. The swamp seemed to hold its breath.Then came the sound—faint splashes, steady, deliberate. Footsteps.The mist shifted. Shapes began to form inside it. One, then another… then dozens. A wave of figures emerged from the fog, wearing silver insignias of the Aetherion Academy and black serpent crest
Chapter 110: Mighty Brother Kaelen
“Junior Brother Kaelen is here!”The shout cut across the battlefield. For a heartbeat, the Shadowfang Sect disciples lit up—eyes shining, hearts pounding. Excitement surged through the air like electricity.Then panic hit. Sharp. Sudden.“Kaelen! Don’t come out!” someone yelled toward the forest. “The Royal Martial Academy teamed up with the Crimson Veil Sect—they’re waiting to ambush us! Run while you can!”From the shadows, a calm voice drifted back. Clear. Confident.“No need to run. I’m already here.”The words landed like stones in water, rippling through every heart and freezing it mid-beat. Slowly, a figure emerged. Tall. Black-clad. Every movement precise, silent, predatory. Light hit his features, just enough to show a face carved from determination.“It’s really Kaelen!”Sylas Myngar’s eyes sparkled with a dangerous greed. The thought of taking Kaelen’s head—and the reward that would follow—twisted his features into a cruel grin.“Search the forest! Don’t let that brat esca
